Maison Bonnot Paris was founded by François Deprez and takes its name as a tribute to his grandfather, Jacques Bonnot, a professor of preparatory humanities. In naming his Parisian jewellery house after him, he honours a remarkable legacy — for Jacques Bonnot did far more than impart academic knowledge. He shared a vision of the world, a professional rigour and a passion for work done with care. Bonnot Paris draws on that spirit to offer something far beyond jewellery: a genuine experience, and a story rich with meaning in every creation.
François Deprez is a gemmologist with a deep passion for precious stones. With each bespoke creation in Paris, every stone is chosen with the utmost discernment, and every piece is conceived as a work of art in its own right. Attention to detail and the pursuit of perfection are the very principles that guided Jacques Bonnot's teaching as well.
Maison Bonnot reaches beyond the creation of exceptional jewellery, preserving a legacy rooted in humanist education and timeless values. To have a piece created by our house is to join a tradition that celebrates authenticity, excellence and the profound significance of every realisation.
